I've had an experience commissioning fanart where all the in-progress stuff was terrific.

Then something awful happened in the inking stage, and the piece came out terrible.

Fortunately, I had an "in-progress" image of the pencil sketch, so I consider that to be the commission I paid for. :)

To be frank, that's actually something that just...happens with us artists. Half the time, our sketch phase is our best work and no matter WHAT we do, the colored phase may not be that great, even if we did our damnedest.

It's very annoying.

I don't do commissions, but that happens to pretty much every piece of fanart I have ever produced.

That's why shouldn't do commissions in the first place if you don't have the skill to deliver a good final product.

da I don't see how the sketch being better-looking means the final version is bad, though?

In my case, it was, though. Pencil sketch was absolutely brilliant. Final inked version, both characters' faces ended up looking like they'd been microwaved. All melty and out of proportion.

But thanks to otakugal15, now I know it's a case of "shit happens".

Nope. I disagree.

Lol, okay.

Awww...

I figured it wasn't anything personal, so I never said anything to the artist. But thank you for giving me insight! I can draw stick figures on a good day, maybe, so I had no idea. :) My talents (such as they are) lie in the writing arena.
